Sachet, Treasuring Box Side Table, Haus Of Hu, 2024

The treasure box is a delicate play of flatness achieved through its depth, layers of detail retrace Chinese paper-cut art to a sharp edge. Each layer is held in place by a structure that is hidden from view but forms an inner space that can be populated with objects to trigger a change in perception of the curated scenes. Two different heights are offered and marked by a different decorative scene. Each scene is built up of layers of laser cut metal suspended from a wooden structure encased in a lacquered box, all manner of small objects can rest within this structure or upon the seemingly floating tabletop.
